Drug Dealers Open Fire on Santa Claus Helicopter

Not even Santa Claus is safe from the violence caused by drug prohibition:

Drug traffickers in a Rio slum opened fire on a helicopter carrying a Santa to a children's party, apparently mistaking it for a police helicopter, police said on Tuesday.

"They thought it was a police operation and started shooting. Luckily, nobody was hurt," a police official said. [Yahoo]

Yeah, those drug traffickers are just lucky Santa Claus didn't go all Chuck Norris on them. You never know what kind of firepower he keeps on hand to protect his monopoly.

All I want for Christmas is a world free of drug war violence and disorder; a world in which men in big red suits can fly helicopters over Rio without being used for target practice by machinegun-toting thugs with free reign over the slums; a world where a man can frolic with carpenter elves and flying reindeer without getting his mistletoe confiscated by the government; a world in which a pungent piney aroma emanating from the den no longer gives police probable cause to search our cozy Christmas cabin.

So happy holidays to you all, whether hippie or hypocrite, activist or antagonist. May the New Year bring hope to the hopeless and clues to the clueless.

Consequences of Prohibition Civil Conflict

yeah, blody santa...

...he sucks big time man...fat bastard.

PISS OFF SANTA - unless you are the real one that has the flying sledge and raindeer - the occult shapeshifter that the anti christ of the police state ritual child abusers seeks to kill and prevent from manifestation.

BRIGHT BLESSINGS!

Poor Santa

The fake Santa must have been quite scared by this. It's not normal to see people shoot a helicopter even if it was the police and not just a civilian. It's not enough that drug abuse kills but should there be more killing just to transport or grow drugs? There are so many teenagers in a drug rehab facility and this makes me feel that the drug dealers have reached their target. What is the police doing about this? Why aren't there more arrests?

Too High

Luckily Santa was too “high” to get those bullets. Old fashion Rudolph shouldn’t been mistaken for police (not sure about this). Clearly those dealers have tasted too much stuff and I’d rather picture them in a cozy drug rehab than a jail.

That would be entertaining

That would be entertaining to see Rudolph go all Chuck Norris on them. In reality that violence on violence would not be the answer nor the solution! We can always slap them on the hand and send them to jail but the best solution would be to give them the best a href="http://www.drug-rehab.ca">Drug treatment around!

Crime!

What has this world come too? Drugs have now gone to a different level...one so extreme that it is becoming a rush for some people. Maybe a serious Drug rehabilitation is really what they need?

Crazy

It is really unfortunate that people are this violent. Instead of locking all these people up for drugs they should be sent to residential drug rehabs for help with their addiction

Crime and Drugs

Not everyone wants help with a drug or alcohol problem. That is why we have drug interventions to help encourage a person to seek help instead of committing a crime.

Very Funny

This article was really funny but at the same time we need more drug rehab programs to help people out.
